The is–ought problem is a philosophical problem of how knowledge of the present world does not necessarily lead to knowledge of how the world ought to be. This is also sometimes referred to as Hume's law or "Hume's Guillotine

Aho and Ullman has a great book about Parsing, Translating and Compiling that I'm currently reading, it's not a either or thing - you can learn about both and they are related to each other

Reading one of their books now, great stuff, compilers are fascinating, I wish I had discovered that earlier

How does one read it? I simply can't read it, only see the first page

Interesting phenomena. I don't see any issues with it really. Many influencers do plastic surgery and other modifications to themselves to be more popular, this is a healthier alternative

I spend a lot of time fixing iOS devices to relatives and friends. I think what you are referring to is just a myth created by the PR department at Apple

Human-friendlyness and bug-prevention is very important, of course everthing in Rust can be created in C or Assembler och in machine-code but the question is how feasible is it that a typical human can do it? Rust has a lot of potential I t

I don't think this project is feasible, it would be much easier to disable all JavaScript-files except white-listed files

Google and Apple support is so bad it's not even possible to review the company at Google Reviews. I had one account banned once with no explanation and it was impossible to get an explanation, my advice is: just make a new account and

But low-level languages also get translated by a parser so I don't see the difference.. Maybe you mean that languages has less abstractions and because of this simplier translations? Think I need to try Zig out to get a grip on it..

In all programming languages you must understand how the parser will understand and translate what you write, it sounds like Zig will always know your intentions and maximize your code, it sounds too good to be true

Thanks for the blog post, was an interesting read

One important reason that is often overlooked is that static sites are cheaper to host since they don't require a preprocessor that consumes server resources. In the future maybe there is cheap hosting for Rust/C++ web preprocesso

The lack of control over hardware and software on contemporary Macs is a show-stopper for me. Once they get back to Snow Leopard ideology I'll return, until then it's Linux or Windows for me

The scientific revolution has indirectly produced a lot of bad things like nuclear wars, climate change, trash islands and more. I just get tired of ideological driven over-positive scientism which made me stop reading

Electron should be banned for the environments sake if the other reasons doesn't persuade, it's inefficient computation to energy ratio using Electron apps, when there is a lot of users like with VSCode or Slack it probably affect

I agree, I think the word has lost it's instrumental value today, I read lately about "Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends" are fascist and that people who believe in truth "realism is a fascist" is fascist. The di

Same here, even if Google Meet, Skype, Teams, Slack et. al worked last week will it work now after latest firmware- and software update? Many times it doesn't without tweaks and the UI might have changed as well. I would like a extern

Ok one second is an exaggeration and I can't scroll to read in my iPhone, maybe Github10sdesktop would be more realistic. But cool anyway

I don’t see why everyone needs to have the same opinion and editor, I’m fine with everyone using the editor they like best. It’s a tiresome endless debate

Sounds like ordinary fasting to me, except the concrete details, in the abstract sense it’s the same. Many Christian churches recommend phone / internet / computer fasting or just fasting from anything that occupies your mind dail

Both Google and YouTube contain stolen and illegal content. There are lots of full length pirate movies on YT for instance. It doesn’t make it right but I just mean all companies should be equally judged by rules and regulations

I agree. Often intelligent academic people can justify almost anything using their toolset of theories from different fields when they intuitively feel something is right. That intuitive feel is what really matters most anyway

Same for me, but ’93, a different computer model and I borrowed a Qbasic manual from my brother who was in college
